1. Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to a voltage adjustment system, and particularly to a voltage adjustment system for electrical testing of electronic devices.
2. Description of Related Art
Many electronic devices such as computers may require electrical testing before delivery. Different operating circuits of the electronic device require different operating voltages during the electrical testing process. For example, electrical testing an electronic device may require operating voltages of 3.3 volts, 5 volts, and 12 volts, and when testing whether the electronic device works abnormally when the operating voltages have slightly changed, the operating voltages of 3.3 volts, 5 volts, and 12 volts may need to be slightly adjusted.
Different power supplies are needed to provide different operating voltages, and voltage adjustment circuits are needed to slightly adjust the operating voltages. Thus, many testing equipments lead to circuit complexity, and high cost.
Therefore, it is desired to provide a voltage adjustment system which can overcome the above-described deficiencies.
Many aspects of the present voltage adjustment system can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the various drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present voltage adjustment system.

The power supply 10 sends an initial voltage signal to the four buck converters 11. The four buck converters 11 receive the initial voltage signal and generate four different output voltage signals V1, V2, V3, and V4 respectively. When the selection switch 17 corresponding to the buck converter 11 that generate the output voltage signal V1 is closed, the microcontroller 13 sends selection signals ADD-A, ADD-B to the ADC 12 and the demultiplexer 14 through the pins P1.4, P1.5. According to the selection signals ADD-A, ADD-B, the ADC 12 collects the output voltage signal V1, converts the output voltage signal V1 into a digital signal, and sends the digital signal to the microcontroller 13. The microcontroller 13 sends a display control signal to the display unit 19. The display unit 19 receives the display control signal and displays the value of the output voltage signal V1. The demultiplexer 14 receives the selection signals ADD-A, ADD-B and sends a low level signal (logic 0) Margin S1 to a voltage control unit 15 connected to the buck converter 11 that generate the output voltage signal V1. The voltage control unit 15 receives the low level signal Margin S1, and the low level signal Margin S1 is applied to the control terminal
When there is a need to slightly adjust the value of the output voltage signal V1, users may choose to increase or decrease the value of the output voltage signal V1 through the bidirectional switch 18. If the value of the output voltage signal V1 needs to be increased, the microcontroller 13 sends a low level signal (logic 0) to the general purpose input/output terminal GPIO1/REFIN through the pin P1.7. Then the transistor Q6 turns off, the voltage of the general purpose input/output terminal GPIO2 is at a high logic level, and then the variable voltage signal ΔVOUT is positive. If the value of the output voltage signal V1 needs to be decreased, the microcontroller 13 sends a high level signal (logic 1) to the general purpose input/output terminal GPIO1/REFIN through the pin P1.7. Then the transistor Q6 turns on, the voltage of the general purpose input/output terminal GPIO2 is at a low logic level, and then the variable voltage signal ΔVOUT is negative.
The adjustment process of the absolute value of the variable voltage signal ΔVOUT is as follows:
If the absolute value of the variable voltage signal ΔVOUT needs to be increased, the button SW2 is pressed. Then the transistors Q3, Q5 turn on, the voltage of the control terminal
If the absolute value of the variable voltage signal ΔVOUT needs to be decreased, the button SW1 is pressed. Then the transistors Q2, Q4 turn on, the voltage of the control terminal
As detailed above, according to an initial voltage signal, the voltage adjustment system 100 generates a plurality of adjustable output voltage signals and is easily operated.
It is to be further understood that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present embodiments have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of structures and functions of various embodiments, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the present disclosure to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
